Your Peptide Pal Some company for the memory question

Reading list

The articles behind the avoidance task, the objects, the molecular measurements and the human anxiety findings.

Memory and brain measurements

The memory-model articles sit beside the Semax protein and gene-expression studies. Selank’s rat findings add another set of molecular observations. The memory experiments and brain-signal notes discuss the particular outcomes that interested me.

Anxiety, immunity and an interaction

The human Selank reports concern anxiety and immune measurements. The Semax monoamine article concerns mice. Those differences recur in the human findings, where the appeal of a helpful companion meets some less comfortable questions.
